Secret Santa - Layering Tutorial

This week I'm hosting Fran*tage Friday over at Paper Craft Planet which is being sponsored by our friends at Stampendous! Today I will show you how to layer identical images to take the flatness out of stamping! The stamp set I’m using for this project is Cling Secret Santa along with the fun Aged Gold Embossing Enamel, which I heat embossed on vellum for the sentiment.

Since cutting can be a tedious task, especially if you’re cutting a lot of the same image, I wanted to find a way to cut several of the same image only once. To do this, you’ll need a sturdy box at least 2 inches high and wide enough to be able to stamp inside it. You may need to remove one or two of the sides like I did to accommodate my stamping mat.

7. Apply several Dimensionals on top of bottom layer; adhere the second image over it.

8. Decide which parts of the image you want raised; stamp and cut. Attach all smaller pieces. Continue layering as desired.

NOW, here's the best part... you can win fabulous goodies from Stampendous just by leaving a comment at the post on Paper Craft Planet before midnight next Thursday, Dec. 15, Eastern Standard Time. We will pick a random winner and announce that lucky winner next Friday. Sound Good?

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you're enjoying your holiday season!
